The function get_author_posts_url retrieves the url where the posts of a certain author are to be found. If you change the url, that doesn’t mean the posts are moved. In other words, you have moved a sign directing you to Buckingham Palace and expect that by doing so you also have relocated the palace. In … Read more
Response is based on the results of the main query. The decision is made before the template is loaded, which is how WP is able to serve a 404 template in the case of a 404. As you’ve learned, the page post type lets you paginate endlessly in both the format pagename/page/n/, as well as … Read more
WordPress stores on the options table two urls for the site: siteurl and home. They should be the first two entries in the options table. Make sure that after migrating those two options match with your new domain. Duplicator should have taken care of it but just check to make sure.
I solved this. I had the page in draft mode. Hence, it was only showing when I was logged in.
A search shows the search template regardless of whether or not there are any results, which is either search.php or index.php if that template doesn’t exist. If you want to load an entirely different template, you can use the search_template filter. Assuming your theme’s 404 template is 404.php: function wpd_search_template( $template ) { if( ! … Read more

I know – I hate the fact that Google indexes the site code, and then floods my logs with 404s for old files. You can add something like this to your robots.txt file: User-agent: * Disallow: /wp-content/plugins/ Disallow: /wp-content/themes/ You could probably just have Disallow: /wp-content/ but that would also stop your images in the … Read more
No, it’s not. Single quotes can’t cause redirects.
Seems like a good candidate for add_rewrite_endpoint(). add_rewrite_endpoint( ‘items’, EP_ROOT, ‘item_id’ ); That will register the endpoint /items/<item ID> and also registers the query var item_id, and eliminates the 404 status header/title as well. But the page title would be the site name and you’d probably still want to hook to pre_get_document_title to customize the … Read more
My first step would be to turn on WP_DEBUG in your wp-config.php file. Edit wp-config.php and add the following lines: define( ‘WP_DEBUG’, true ); Then visit your site’s admin (example.com/wp-admin) and see if an error appears. More than likely the plugin you just added broke the site, so you can go into your local filesystem … Read more
